The City of Campbell River looks to purchase goods and services in a manner that offers the best overall value to the City. Effective procurement is an essential service in the public sector to ensure the best value is found and that purchasing decisions are made without bias or favour. It allows an equal opportunity for qualified suppliers to bid for City business and to maintain a high standard of financial stewardship. This will ensure that purchases are consistent, provide accountability and transparency by reducing ambiguity as to the goods and services that are procured using public funds.

Notices of procurement opportunities are posted on the BC Bid website along with the Bids and Tenders e-bidding system where the downloadable documents are available which allows businesses to easily register, search, and submit bids for goods, services, and construction projects online. There are no fees or charges for accessing or downloading the City of Campbell River opportunities via Bids and Tenders.


Businesses need to LOG IN or CREATE AN ACCOUNT to access bid and tender opportunities before downloading the bid documents.
